New Member - I Need To Identify This Pen And Wallet Combo


leozinho

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I received this Montblack pen and wallet combo four years ago as a gift from the Queen of Qatar.

 

(I played a very, very minor role in one of her visits to the U.S. She might give away dozens of them on each visit.)

 

At the time, I looked for the set in the Mont Blanc catalog without success. There's no bar code or product number than I can find. http://www.anony.ws/i/2014/09/01/IMG_0632.jpg

 

I'm trying to identify it so I can value it and offer it for sell.

 

Thanks.

PS Qatar doesn't have a queen. Unless you mean Sheikha Mozah- she is the Consort of the Emir.

 

That is who I mean. She is often called (incorrectly, I see) the Queen.

 

Here are some photos that didn't upload the first time.

 

Thanks again.

If someone was interested, I could establish provenance to a certain extent. I can prove my occupation, which would explain why I received this as a gift (at least to the extent that you would say "That sounds plausible.")

 

I mentioned how I got the set more to explain why there was no bar code, product number, etc and to explain why I wasn't able to find this set in the Montblanc catalog. I was/am concerned that if I listed this on Ebay that some might consider it fake. Perhaps the lack of bar code or product number is not unusual?

 

I buy knives from time to time, and fakes out of China are a big problem when purchasing one of the popular, mid-range to relatively expensive brands. A search shows that fakes are an issue with Montblanc pens as well.

Yup, both Montblanc Starwalker fineliners and even more, MB leather goods are very common fakes. If you're near Houston take the set by Dromgoole's and maybe they can help you.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
